• —Target Layers: Linear layers
• —Quantization Version: 0.11.0

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_id = "JongYeop/Qwen2.5-7B-Instruct-FP8-W8A8"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    device_map="auto",
    torch_dtype="auto"
)

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "What is machine learning?"}
]

input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    add_generation_prompt=True,
    return_tensors="pt"
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(
    input_ids,
    max_new_tokens=256,
    do_sample=True,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.9,
)

response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][input_ids.shape[-1]:], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)

Model Architecture

• —Architecture: Qwen2ForCausalLM
• —Hidden Size: 3584
• —Intermediate Size: 18944
• —Number of Layers: 28
• —Number of Attention Heads: 28
• —Number of KV Heads: 4
• —Vocabulary Size: 152064
• —Max Position Embeddings: 32768

Intended Use

This quantized model is intended for efficient inference with reduced memory footprint while maintaining reasonable performance. It is suitable for:

• —Resource-constrained environments
• —Applications requiring lower latency
• —Batch inference scenarios
• —GPU inference with FP8 support

Limitations

• —FP8 quantization may result in some accuracy loss compared to the full precision model
• —Static quantization may not adapt to all input distributions optimally
• —Best performance is achieved on hardware with native FP8 support (e.g., NVIDIA H100, Ada Lovelace GPUs)
